I am a bit worried because I think some of the substance got on my clothes and hair. Could I be infected with this? please help. thanks. Reply to this Question Share |

As also said next time pulll hair back and roll up sleeves.

Anonymous,
Take a shower and go to the doctors office where you can be tested for whatever disease you were researching in your chem class. Next time, put your hair back and roll up your sleeves if you're going to be touching poo.

Air kills most bacteria, and as long as you wash yourself with warm water, you probably don't need to worry.

Well first i reckon you should talk with your Chemistry teacher, they will most likely know the risks of the experiment you did.
Since you havent really gone into much detail about your experiment, i would say if your teacher says there is a risk go to the doctors and tell him/her about your experiment and they will go from there.
